Review on Gigabyte Graphics 256 Bit Gv R57XTGAMING OC 8GD by Adam Woniak ᠌

At first I wanted to leave a negative review, because there was no limit to indignation. I assembled a new home system, primarily for games, what can I hide . The RX 5700 at the beginning of 2022 is a worthy solution in terms of gaming performance. But I couldn’t take advantage of this performance: I ran into a terribly unstable operation of the drivers. Black screens in the browser, games, windows startup. Sometimes it was possible to revive the system, sometimes only a power restart. Started googling. Apparently, the problems are massive (as of February 2022). It's a shame. 20.1.3, 20.2.1, 20. Q1, 19.8.1.0 are tested driver versions. Versions showed different optimizations, but equally terrible stability. However, at the moment, after 2 weeks of dancing with a tambourine, the card is working fine, even well. How it was fixed - xs, I don’t want to put something on a pure experiment. Maybe the drivers were installed normally, maybe win 10 had time to ate. Or maybe it's a new speaker system (this is not a joke: "A loss of display with working audio may be experienced on a limited number of displays when performing a mode change on Radeon RX 5000 series graphics products." - a quote from the Known Issues section » for drivers 20.2.1). If we leave the software problems, I would like to praise the cooling system. It is the same as on the 5700XT, which has a declared TDP of 225 W, while this card has 180 W — i. E. there is a decent supply of cooling system power. As a result, in a cramped case (ZALMAN S2) with a pair of quiet 800 rpm fans in stress tests, the maximum heating is 66C at 1000 rpm on the card cooler. Excellent result. In addition, the cooling system has a passive mode - the fans on the card do not start up to 50C. What is the result . Yes, I had to suffer. But in the end, now I can still enjoy stable 75fps (the maximum of my monitor) and freesync on ultras in games, and even more so the super smooth operation of Autocad. And without being distracted by the noise. I am satisfied.
